Leopard wanders into Nashik city

 

 

NDTV Correspondent

Saturday, May 19, 2007 (Nashik)

Chaos broke out on Saturday morning when a leopard was spotted in a

residential area in Nashik.

 

The leopard roamed around for close to four hours in Nashik's

Audumbhar society in Indira Nagar.

 

Forest Department officials along with the police and fire brigade

made efforts to capture the leopard but were unsuccessful.

 

Finally, the leopard was captured in a flat in the society,

tranquilized and taken away by the Forest Department.

 

Officials say that it will be released into the forest later.

 

In the last two years, this is the third instance of a wild animal

wandering into city area, presumably in search of food or water.

 

Just three months ago when a leopard wandered into the Amruthdham area

in Nasik, it was brutally beaten to death by locals.
